Open and log in to the Traffic Management 12123 app. For first-time users, complete the registration process first; On the homepage, click "More" and find the "Renew Expired License" function under the driver's license services section; Read and agree to the "Service Instructions" and "Declaration of Obligations and Content"; Confirm your driver's license information, choose the pickup method for your new license, and pay the processing fee; After submission, wait for the review and mailing process to complete.
I once renewed my driver's license through the Traffic Management 12123 App, which was quite convenient. The process generally involves these steps: First, get a medical examination at a designated hospital within 90 days in advance to check vision and hearing, and obtain a medical certificate. Then, upload photos of your ID card, a recent one-inch white-background ID photo, and the medical report in the 12123 App, and fill in the application information. After submission, pay the fee online, usually around 10 to 20 yuan. Next, choose the pickup method—either have it mailed to your home or pick it up at the vehicle management office. The App will show the review progress, and it usually takes a few days to complete. I think it's best to handle it in advance and not wait until it expires, otherwise you might need to retake the written test or face a fine. Remember to check the photo clarity—don’t waste time like I did the first time by uploading a blurry photo. The whole process can be done at home, saving a lot of hassle.
